Back in the `70's, I was at the local K-Mart looking at their albums and found an album by the Bonzo Dog Band: "Make Up And Be Friendly". At the time, I knew they were partially associated with Monty Python and were a very funny group. I plunked down my $4.00 and change (that was EXPENSIVE back then!!) and took it home. Upon cracking the seal on it, I pulled out the album and it said it was a horoscope record by Omar somebody or other! Black label, silver print. I thought this was just another of their jokes and that the record actually WAS one of theirs! I put it on and it started playing this guy talking about horoscopes! Okay, again, I thought it was all part of the joke. Any second now, the music will start playing! It never did!! I spot checked all the tracks on that side and they were ALL Omar talking about horoscopes!! There WAS no joke!! The joke was on ME because someone at the factory put the wrong record in that cover!! Of course, I took it back and had to get a refund because that was the only copy they had!!
